Materials Required for Crochet Ghost Coasters
This crochet coaster pattern uses medium-weight yarn and a 5 mm hook. The samples were made with Red Heart Super Saver, a soft acrylic yarn.
However, if you want to be sure your pieces are functional, you should choose 100% cotton yarn that absorbs water well, so it will protect your surfaces perfectly against spills.
How Big Is The Ghost Coaster?
This coaster pattern allows for a finished size of approximately 9 inches in height and 4 inches in width (23 cm x 10 cm), providing ample coverage for your favorite mugs or glasses. Would you like to make your coaster bigger or smaller? You can easily do so by using a different weight yarn or hook size.
